About 0TCD4ZZ
0TCD4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the urethra using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to Urethrotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (58.0).
For a different body part, codes include 0TC04ZZ (right kidney), 0TC14ZZ (left kidney), 0TC34ZZ (right kidney pelvis), 0TC44ZZ (left kidney pelvis), 0TC64ZZ (right ureter), 0TC74ZZ (left ureter) and 2 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TCD0ZZ (open), 0TCD3ZZ (percutaneous), 0TCD7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0TCD8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0TCDXZZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 671 (Urethral Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 672 (Urethral Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Urethral Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
